The suggestions to remove entire seats won’t work. I’m traveling with two kids and my wife and we need a fully functioning vehicle once there. We need to be a two vehicle family once in a place.

We pack for season changes and living in a place. It’s not a ton but between a pack n play (crib), a folding dog kennel, climbing gear, clothes for a family, and a training potty.

This is pretty far removed from the time I moved overseas for a couple years and brought a backpack.

Yes, I realize I’m trying to do too much but my wife and I have a pretty excellent track record of getting things done.
